Description

Hi,

during some other accessibility testing on plone 6 I noticed that the Tab bar (autotoc-nav it seems) does not display in any way which element has the focus.
It would be greatly appreciated by visually impaired users if it would be displayed where the focus is a the moment.
I would success using the same as the :hover autotoc.scss#L51 if it fits in the design concept.

Research direction

Start in src/pat/autotoc/autotoc.scss at the referenced line 51, and inspect how the autotoc navigation currently styles :hover. Add an equivalent visible treatment for the focused element, then verify with keyboard Tab navigation that the current focus is visibly indicated without disrupting the existing design.
